Maddy Lou and Gus have been with me for two weeks now. I feel like I have had them for months. They are such a bonded pair that usually it seems like I'm odd woman out, but that's okay.

The kittens do everything together. They turn into freakazoid cats at about 2:00 a.m. most nights. They sleep at the same time and usually in the same bed (made for one cat). They eat at the same time (from the same bowl), drink water at the same time and sometimes use the litter box one right after another. Maddy goes back and forth between acting like Gus's littermate or acting like his mother. She cleans him and gets very anxious if he is separated from her and can hear him meow and can't find him. She's a good big sister and I am lucky, satisfied and grateful to have an apartment that now feels like a home thanks to these two.

Happy Birthday Audrey Rose!

Audrey Rose Georges turned one year old today. Her mom, Angela, made this wonderful invitation for the occasion and has done an excellent job of documenting Audrey from a positive pregnancy test to her most recent milestone, taking her first steps, through her blog, My Daily Struggle . This is one well-documented and adored kid and I hope Angela and Papa Tim congratulate themselves on 12 months of excellent hard work. Audrey is a little superstar.

Does anyone remember the video for this song. It was so stupid. The Banarama girls were being followed by a trucker and they threw some banana peels on his windshield -- like that would stop him. Any other '80s fans out there remember any more details? I still loved the group and still love the song. I actually have this single on vinyl -- just like the picture. Tomorrow will be a beast. Today the air conditioning was like the Little Engine that Could except this little engine never made it over the hill. The dog pants all the time like she can never quite catch her breath and outside it is just nasty. Even at midnight tonight it was still 85 degrees and a super sauna outside. I have an elaborate system of fans set up in the bedroom and it helps. Andi even has her own fan and she sleeps jacked up right next to it. To add insult to injury, K called me at work frantic last night, "THERE IS A POSSUM IN THE BASEMENT!" If that exclamation doesn't typify the deep south I d...
